I would rate this hotel as a 3-star hotel rather than a 4-star one.

The food was varied, but I would have liked a wider selection of fresh fruit.

The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere in the hotel was nice. The food was decent, it is not the highest quality and I was bored of it after 5 days but they have very nice variety of food and there is food almost all the time (they also do feed you quite a bit of proteins). The location was amazing and the pool area was very nice in my opinion. The cocktails they serve are very nice as well.

Highly recommend

Very nice hotel, clean, with good food & water included. All personnel are just amazing, best attitude ever. Special thanks to Alex from reception who helped to plan a route by car for the sightseeing. Beach is 10 min walking, but we were with a car, so this was not a problem

Exceptional stay with top-notch service and luxury at Solimar Ruby Hotel.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Solimar Ruby Hotel, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every need was met with a smile. My room was immaculate, offering stunning views of the pool and the mountain. Dining at their amazing all inclusive restaurant was a highlight, with a menu that featured both delicious local cuisine and international favorites. I highly recommend the Solimar Ruby Hotel for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable stay.

I ordered a standard room, but I was offered an improved option. It was unexpected and very pleasant

The hotel is excellent. The food is very good and varied. The drinks were also varied. Friendly staff, quiet in the room. Everything you need was in the room. We arrived at 09-00 and could already have breakfast. Our room was ready at 10:00 and we did not have to wait long

It could have been better. The hotel is not a 4 star hotel in terms of the overall look and the state of the rooms. I do

The staff was great. Really nice and smiling and very welcoming. They handled any complaints and tried to make things better.

Well done, Solimar Ruby Royal

Beginning from Check-in, everything was running smoothly. Very nice stuff, starting from reception to the cleaning stuff. The restaurant was always very clean and the food in a nice quality. Also the cuisine themes like Italia, Tex-Mex and Greek were done very well. There was always a place to find, in- and outdoor to have a breakfast or dinner. Both bars were very comfortable and the drinks delicious. All in all, a beautiful stay.
